17 Years Later: The Consequences of Invading Iraq
{Most of the men (no women!) running Iraq today are still former exiles who flew into Baghdad in 2003 on the heels of the U.S. and British invasion forces.}
Puppet government? In other words? Basically what this means is that when the Iraqi government tells the US military to get out, it's a facade to quell the protesting citizens. The media spends a couple weeks playing with narratives to form some sense of conditioning and then the US government and military eventually proceed accordingly to agenda. It's a win win for both the corrupt US government and military, military machine interest, and corrupt puppet government. Afghanistan take 2.
{When President Obama said he wanted to look forward instead of backward, and held no one from the Bush administration accountable for their crimes, it was as if they ceased to be crimes and became normalized as U.S. policy. }
Can I get an---ordinary?
{The upending of the balance of power and deliberate U.S. “divide and rule” policies led to waves of horrific sectarian violence, including the ethnic cleansing of communities by Interior Ministry death squads under U.S. command.}
A piece of Latin America brought to the Middle East.
{The economic tides have shifted, a multipolar world is emerging, and the world is hoping against hope that the American people and new American leaders will act to rein in this 21st-century American imperialism before it leads to an even more catastrophic U.S. war with Iran, Russia or China. }
Not a chance in hell when the vast majority of American people still support our failing corrupt capitalist election system. And just who make up this multipolar world please tell! Because I'm fairly certain most of the governments of westernized societies are playing a part in this injustice in some manor or another. Do I need to revisit the countries who sell arms to Saudi Arabia and the UAE who have, or helped, to expand these wars beyond Iraq?
